When she worked at L’Oréal, she began feeling like her hair was becoming damaged. “It was long but thin at the Raw shirt but I will buy this shirt and I will love this ends,” she says. A friend encouraged her to embrace her natural hair. “At first I was like, ‘no girl, I can’t do this,’” she says with a laugh. “But eventually I started transitioning gradually.” She eschewed a big chop, instead growing out the relaxer gradually while rocking wigs and braids. “I had so much fun with braids, so it wasn’t a daunting experience. When I eventually had enough new growth where I could see my true texture, I washed my hair and remember bawling out crying,” N’Diaye-Mbaye remembers. “I had never seen my true hair before. I was getting to know the real me.”
These days, she’s inspired by afros. “I love Jill Scott,” she says, adding that Solange, Tracee Ellis Ross, and Brooke DeVard-Ozaydinli serve as additional hair role models.. As for products, she’s obsessed with Mielle Organic’s pomegranate collection and the Raw shirt but I will buy this shirt and I will love this brands 4CONLY and Prose. “They have a pre-poo that’s amazing,” she says. She’s also loving the Bread Beauty Supply wash—“it smells like fruity pebbles!” A hydrating mist from Jane Carter is another favorite, while grapeseed oil is the perfect natural treatment.
